Last night was our (Dad and I) first guitar class of the fall term. We'd taken the class last fall, but then got too busy to take the next terms until this September.
Anyway, I was glad that we'd been practicing, and didn't have to struggle with trying to relearn the the chords and strumming patterns. Luckily, from all the practicing, our fingers had the beginnings of tiny callouses on the tips of our fingers. They will get thicker from playing longer, but it's nice to have that little pad to keep your fingers from getting those huge dents in your fingertips that hurt so bad.
Over all, it was good, and I had fun. Can't wait for next wednesday!

Trace is curious to see why I was staring at an odd shaped wooden box, through the camera.

What kind of music do you play? My brother and I play too sometimes.
Good for you! I used to play a little bit when I was a teenager and tried to pick it up again a few years ago. Unfortunately, I broke my wrist and now can't turn it far enough to pay the chords.
Threecollie, Mostly country. Our teacher usually does a mix of rock and some country. Did you play acoustic?
Shirley, I know, some chords are hard enough to do, but then if you can't bend your wrist...
Yes, I do now...I have a cheap old copy of a fancy Gibson. Used to have a Gibson SG electric....back in the day
Good for people to know.
